Proverbs 6:11
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
and poverty will come upon you like a robber, and need like a bandit.
In context
9 How long will you lie there, O slacker? When will you get up from your sleep?
10 A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest,
11 and poverty will come upon you like a robber, and need like a bandit.
12 A worthless person, a wicked man, walks with a perverse mouth,
13 winking his eyes, speaking with his feet, and pointing with his fingers.
